Seniors: Get Cheap Dental Implants (Even Without Dental Insurance)

Discount Dental Plans

Discount dental plans are cheaper alternatives to dental insurance. They're available for seniors, and don't have an age limit! They work like a membership at a big-box store with a monthly fee that is usually around one-third of what you would pay each month for dental insurance. The monthly fee gives you discounts of up to 60 percent on certain treatments. Discount dental plans can only be used at certain dental offices. Some offices might give a bigger discount than other offices in the same area, so it can help to check with several places.

If you already have a regular dentist, ask their office which discount plans they take before buying one! Discount dental plans are normally valid for one year, and you can use them even if you already have a dental condition. While the plan might help you save a lot on dental implants, you will have to pay the full cost at the time you receive your treatment. If paying in full is hard for you, ask your dental office about getting on a payment plan. Be sure to bring your discount card with you to every appointment.
